After years of requests from fans of the Marc johnson 1’s, Emerica is now set to release this classic silhouette under a new name, the OG1. This resurrection of the classic skate shoe has sent the skateboard community into a frenzy since the announcement has been made, and I myself am one of those filled with excitement for its imminent release. The shoe is being released by Emerica, not only due to years of imploring by folks within the skateboard community, but to also showcase and remind people of the rich heritage that the company holds in skateboarding. Two colorways will release in the Spring of 09 in limited numbers, so be sure to keep your eyes open!
